Attack of the Theocrats!
These clowns just need to accept their Holy Book, written by ignorant goatherds, is wrong about some things. It is not the inerrant word of god. Large chunks of it, including the creation stuff, are disprovable. To all intents and purposes evolution is a scientific fact. Anyone who now comes up with a better idea, and proves it, will deserve every Nobel Prize heaped upon him.
So why do they persist in living in denial? Is it really too much to ask that they believe in a god if they really must, but they stop believing in flat earth nonsense? Even the Vatican ended up accepting (just about) evolution, or the fact that the universe does not revolve around the earth.
At some point you just end up looking bloody stupid if you do not.
